Chapter 287 The Strange Him
Su Man decided to stay in the car and continue observing.
What if she just came at the wrong time and the client that Qiao Shiyan had an appointment with arrived soon?
But Su Man waited for a whole day and still didn't see the so-called client.
After sitting in a street coffee shop for a whole day, Qiao Shiyan packed up his briefcase and returned to the car.
Su Man immediately drove the car and caught up with him.
Qiao Shiyan drove to a nearby dessert shop and bought a cake. Su Man noticed that it was her favorite cake, cheese cranberry flavor.
Passing by a flower shop, Qiao Shiyan pulled over again, went in, and bought a large bunch of sunflowers, which he also paired with red honeysuckle. The lively and vibrant red accents made the shop look very beautiful.
He held the flowers and looked at them for a while at the door of the flower shop.
The dejected look finally turned into a look of joy.
Su Man couldn't help but be curious.
Where is he going and who is he going to meet?
Qiao Shiyan got in the car, and Su Man's car followed behind, not too close but not too far away.
Just after passing two traffic lights, Su Man was surprised:
Isn’t Qiao Shiyan’s route the route back to Manchester Garden?
After continuing to talk, Su Man was completely sure that Qiao Shiyan was returning to their home.
From a distance of a block, Su Man watched Qiao Shiyan get out of the car, carrying cakes and desserts, holding a bouquet of flowers, and walk into the house.
Su Man didn't wait outside for long before she went home.
When Qiao Shiyan saw Su Man, he immediately came over and said, "Are you tired today? The place where I'm going to meet with the client is very close to your favorite pastry shop, so I bought you some desserts."
Then he picked up the flowers on the table and said, "The flowers in the flower shop are also very beautiful today."
"Thank you," Su Man took the flowers and hesitated, "You today..."
"What?"
"Did work go well today?"
For some reason, when the words were on the tip of her tongue, Su Man changed the question. She suddenly couldn't bear to expose him.
"Not bad. Although the client's request is a bit complicated, it's not difficult. I'll go meet my defendant in a couple of days."
Qiao Shiyan was very serious.
But in fact, there was no client, no defendant. He had clearly been sitting alone on the street for the entire day.
Su Man forced herself to pretend, "Well, that's good, don't work too hard."
Qiao Shiyan's smile deepened, "I'll listen to you."
Mother Chen brought Doudou over. Qiao Shiyan went over and took Doudou from Mother Chen's arms, a loving smile on his face. "Did our little Doudou listen to you today? Did you make your mother tired?"
Aunt Chen watched and smiled from the side.
Usually, Qiao Shiyan would hold Doudou for a while, then hand Doudou back to Chen Ma and go back to work.
But today he held Doudou tightly and even played a "weightlifting game" with Doudou.
He used his arm as a branch and let Doudou lie on his arm like a sloth and hold the "branch". He held Doudou with one arm and lifted him up and down.
Chen Ma was still waiting on the side. Qiao Shiyan turned to her and said, "You go ahead and do your work. I'll take care of Doudou."
He put Doudou back into the swaddle, amused Doudou with the newly bought toys, and made Doudou laugh from time to time.
Su Man felt that he had suddenly turned from a busy man into an idle person.
She asked, "Will you delay your work by spending so much time with Doudou?"
Qiao Shiyan didn't even turn his head, his attention still on Doudou:
"It's okay. I've been quite relaxed lately. I'll take this opportunity to help you share some of the burden." At this point, he seemed to feel that he was being too attentive and obvious to Su Man, so he added, "Spend some time with Doudou as well, and cultivate our relationship!"
"Children will have no memory before the age of two." Su Man stared into Qiao Shiyan's eyes.
